About This Product
This is a straightforward piece of mechanics lab equipment for teacher-led lessons on simple machines. Students compare effort direction, load movement and the number of supporting rope segments, and link what they see to tension and mechanical advantage. Fixed, movable and compound pulley concepts can be discussed with it where the supplied configuration supports them, and pulleys can be set against levers, inclined planes and wheels and axles. Export supply of the Pulley Demonstration Model can be arranged to laboratories and schools in Mauritius, Vanuatu, Antigua and Barbuda, Uruguay, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Benin.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How does a pulley give mechanical advantage?
A fixed pulley mainly changes the direction of the pulling force. When more rope segments support the load, the ideal effort needed to hold it falls, which is the idea of mechanical advantage.
